• Define critical-to-quality (CTQ) parameters and acceptance standards.
• Verify SMT process flows in pre-production phase.
• Line readiness reviews before production release.

2. Leading daily production issues troubleshooting (based on data analysis, customer feedback, ongoing reliability, etc.). Involve cross-functional departments to support where necessary

3.Proactive identify areas for improvement based on cost analysis and capacity constraints (including yield, efficiency and material consumption) and address by structured project base approach.

4. Standardizing working methods, processes and materials for production.

Maintain process parameters such as for pick and place, solder paste printing, reflow profiling, wave soldering, and post reflow processes.

Ensure compliance with IPC standards, RoHS, and relevant customer specifications

5. Customer service concerning complaints in restraining, correcting and preventing actions

6. Conducting statistical control over processes and statistical analysis (Pareto based high reject areas identification, cause and effect analysis) and drive Cp/ Cpk improvements

7. New products and materials approval follow Sonion releasing process
